Hey fellow polycounters, i'm looking to get myself a decent monitor for texturing/3d etc and was wondering what people's opinions are here. I'm thinking of getting a Samsung around 24" and preferably a height adjustable one since i'm tall. Anyone bought a new monitor recently?
Aren't you bothered by the low resolution of an hdtv? 1080 at 32" seems like quite a stretch. My 24" is 1920x1200 and a proper 27 or 30" monitor should be 2560x1600 For me, that would be less pixel space than my 24, and much much less than my 24 + secondary 20, so i would have a hard time switching, no matter how big the…

I spent a lot of time calibrating the colours to get it looking good. It also helped that I got it for a decent price. 239$ CDN Feel…
Eq: 1920x1080 res at 32" doesn't look bad at all, there's no stretched pixels/aliasing and 1080p movies look great. Working on the smaller 20-24" screens gives me this weird tunnel vision effect when ever I work on big/detailed models. For me, it's hard to zoom out and view all the details properly on a model on a smaller…
Wow! Thank's guys i'm impressed at all your input. It's a good point about the various screens that my work will be seen on. I definitely dont need a photographer's standard monitor. As i'm in the UK i'm looking for a monitor around 200 pounds which should get me a fairly decent 24". I hadn't heard of IPL before as i…
